It establishes a two-way websocket connection between the local computer and Remix IDE for a particular project directory. `remixd` can be used to set up a development environment with other popular frameworks like Hardhat, Truffle, Slither etc. More details are explained in the [documentation](https://remix-ide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/remixd.html). ## Installation `npm install -g @remix-project/remixd` NOTE: When the remixd NPM module is installed, it also installs [Slither](https://github.com/crytic/slither), [solc-select](https://github.com/crytic/solc-select#quickstart) and sets [solc](https://docs.soliditylang.org/en/latest/installing-solidity.html) to latest version i.e. 0.8.15 currently. ALSO NOTE: Python3.6+ (pip3) needs to already be installed on the System. In case of any discrepancy, Slither can also be installed along with other dependencies using the command: ``` > remixd -i slither ``` _(This packaging of Slither with the remixd module is supported since Remixd v0.6.3)_ ### Warning for quite old users There is a new version of remixd with a new npm address: https://npmjs.com/package/@remix-project/remixd If you were using the old one you need to: 1. uninstall the old one: `npm uninstall -g remixd` 2. install the new: `npm install -g @remix-project/remixd` ## remixd command The remixd command without options shares present working directory and the shared Remix domain will be https://remix.ethereum.org, https://alpha.remix.live, or https://beta.remix.live The remixd command is: ``` > remixd ``` If you are using Remix from localhost or you are not running the command from your working directory, you’ll need to use the command with flags. ``` > remixd -h Usage: remixd [options] Establish a two-way websocket connection between the local computer and Remix IDE for a folder Options: -v, --version output the version number -u, --remix-ide URL of remix instance allowed to connect -s, --shared-folder Folder to share with Remix IDE (Default: CWD) -i, --install Module name to install locally (Supported: ["slither"]) -r, --read-only Treat shared folder as read-only (experimental) -h, --help output usage information Example: remixd -s ./shared_project -u http://localhost:8080 ``` ## Share a project directory `remixd -s ./shared_project -u https://remix.ethereum.org` The current user should have `read/write` access to the folder (at least `read` access). It is important to notice that changes made to the current file in `Remix IDE` are automatically saved to the local computer every 5000 ms. There is no `Save` action. But the `Ctrl-Z` (undo) can be used. Furthermore: - No copy of the shared folder is kept in the browser storage. - Clicking on the new folder or new file icon under localhost will create a new file or folder in the shared folder. - If a folder does not contain any file, the folder will not be displayed in the explorer (that might change). - Symbolic links are not forwarded to Remix IDE. ## Ports Usage remixd creates a websocket connection with Remix IDE on different ports. Ports are defined according to specific purposes. Port usage details are as: - **65520** : For `remixd` websocket listener, to share a project from local device with Remix IDE. Shared folder will be loaded in the Remix IDE File Explorer workspace named localhost [See more](https://remix-ide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/remixd.html) - **65522** : For `Hardhat` websocket listener, to enable the Hardhat Compilation using Remix IDE Solidity Compiler plugin, if shared folder is a Hardhat project [See more](https://remix-ide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/hardhat.html) - **65523** : For `Slither` websocket listener, to enable the Slither Analysis using Remix IDE Solidity Static Analysis plugin [See more](https://remix-ide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/slither.html) - **65524** : For `Truffle` websocket listener, to enable the Truffle Compilation using Remix IDE Solidity Compiler plugin, if shared folder is a Truffle project [See more](https://remix-ide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/truffle.html) Note: Please make sure your system is secured enough and these ports are not opened nor forwarded. --- _Source: https://npm.io/package/@remix-project/remixd · Machine-readable twin of the npm.io package page.
